Wale - Attention: Deficit 2xLP |
DESCRIPTION |
Wale is moving up in the mainstream ranks and is still receiving love from the slightly more underground fans that helped discover him. Much like Kid Cudi with his feet planted on both sides of the hip hop line, perhaps his popularity will help net younger generations coming up on today's pop-rap and pull them in the direction of real hip hop and where it currently resides in the shadows of commercial rap. After landing a big gig performing at the MTV Video Music Awards he's been picked up by major label Interscope and even landed guest appearances on the album from high profile names in the industry right now including Gucci Mane, Pharrell (also on production with Neptunes), the buzzworthy K'naan, dirty south legend Bun B, production from DJ Green Lantern and more. Try to ignore the appearance from Lady GaGa...it does not define the tone of Attention: Deficit and is merely the direction some of the album took on after being scooped up by Interscope. | |
